In Oregon, a revolutionary community alliance is working
to put water – and steelhead trout – back into the
Deschutes River. Also in this issue: A
federal judge has reinstated President Clinton’s roadless
rule protecting forests in the Lower 48 states, but the decision
seems to have only confused the issue of forest management and is
likely to end up back in court.

Editor's Note

The Bush administration deserves credit for its "Water
2025" initiative, which provided grants that have helped the
Deschutes River Conservancy and the Central Oregon Irrigation
District begin restoring Oregon’s Deschutes River
